I am living proof, actually, I’ve struggle with insomnia from a young age and can absolutely corroborate that days after nights where I rested with my eyes closed were considerably better than days where I did something to occupy the time (like reading, as an example).
But boy is it fucking boring.
- Comment on Truth is way more fucked up than fiction 1 week ago:
Clancy was a staunch conservative. Dedicated several of his books to notable conservative politicans such as Ronald Reagan. He supported the NRA (yes I understand the NRA has changed form over the years but I don’t really care) and he opposed abortion.
He praised Bush for being a ‘good guy’, granted he did challenge the justifications for the Iraq War (I also don’t really care about a broken clock managing to be right).
I haven’t read any of his novels for a very long time, but what I remember is that amongst the tech and spy stuff there is stuff that sounds like very clear RW propaganda (to me).
Granted, this is the first time I’ve thought about Clancy in years outside of conversations with my (you might have guessed it) conservative coworker. I don’t really know much about the man other than he was definitely conservative. I think you could probably make the argument that he was center right, and that that center right from the 60’s is very different than the center right of today. Draw your own conclusions.

Why would Clancy write anything that isn’t in full support of conservative idealogy?

Ok thank God, I thought I was going crazy for a second. This is the rule I follow and I had a moment where I thought maybe I’d been wrong my entire life.

Uhhhh, hold on a second.
But if a woman cheats and has a baby, that baby always becomes part of the family. If a man cheats and has a baby… Either it comes out immediately when the woman in question asks for child support or tells the man’s wife/girlfriend, or it doesn’t really come out because that woman is also in a relationship and wants to pass the child off as her man’s. Plus even if 10 years down the line the woman comes out and says “hey you remember that time you cheated on your wife? Well I’d like you to meet our child”, that’s a lot less personal than raising someone else’s kid as your own and then finding out 10, 20 or maybe 40 years later.
What?
I’m hoping no surprises despite my slut of an ex having been with what I’m guessing may be dozens of other dudes in the <2 years we were together. The whole “pill baby” was so perfectly planned though, that I’m pretty sure she took a break from whoring until she was pregnant. In fact it’s what she did with her first kid’s father - quick break from whoring when she found a nice target, boom, pregnant, and then she was free to sleep with everyone again while he was at work.
There is a ton to unpack here that I’m afraid I simply do not have the strength for. What I can say is that your perspective is skewed.
People cheat for a variety of reasons. Yes, someone doing something like what you were a victim of is 100% an unforgiveable crime. Your life, your childs life, and the lives of anyone else that has to tolerate someone like that, have been permanently marked by her machinations.
That being said, people also cheat because they’re horny impulsive idiots that seem to think STDs don’t exist, let alone the biggest STD of them all : pregnancy (I’m kidding, childbirth is a beautiful thing — typically).
Not everyone is a criminal mastermind nymphomaniac roping unsuspecting men into… whatever the fuck her goal was. Seriously, you can’t let yourself think like that.

Again, I don’t have much to add — but god damnit I try to go to bed early and end up staying awake staring at the ceiling all night.
I could probably get more sunlight but this is a post on how to be less sleepy, not more sleepy.

Capitalizing every word in a sentence is also stupid, yet here we have people discussing the pseudo-grammar of it.

You must have tree trunks for legs, but my very literal perception of this joke has always been ‘uphill, no downhill — just uphill’. As if they were on some kind of treadmill of hell.

Guys, did you realize that you can actually eat chicken organs?
For those of you actually wondering where the 2 dollars goes, it’s there. The chicken bits you never want to eat because you’re a spoiled western baby.

Makes me think God was a woman, and this is her pulling up the ladder.

The written language is developed by the spoken language. I.e. colloquialisms are king.
I raged against people using literally when they mean figuratively for years. I lost.

It’ll shock you to learn that most men don’t bother wiping after peeing, either. They just let it drip in their underwear.
For those of you that might say it doesn’t matter — I am living proof of your error. You can wipe your dick after peeing, I know — outlandish.

To me it looks like the U to the far left is also messed up — it could be some kind of misalignment that’s applying more pressure on specifically that part of the press.
Idk, maybe there was an earthquake or something – I actually kind of like imperfections like this.

You can make the argument that Helldivers is more of a mission based shooter, and many people will agree with you.
Hunt is absolutely an extraction shooter. You take gear into a raid, fight other players, collect money and even their guns, fight a boss and collect the bounty when you extract.

This makes me wonder, is the Big O notation connected to the square cube law in any way? Cuz Big O being named for one of the things that makes its existence impossible would amuse me.

If you’re a beekeeper you either already know about it or can test it. Just make sure you’re in a bee suit, they will attack you.

I think that we all have really fucked up thoughts every now and again, and behaving like we never have is a great way to delude ourselves into believing a false reality.
Better to own them and grow than bury them and act like you’re some golden god on high.
